THEOCRATIC CONVOY
Myself,
if I were the leader of
A
Social Transcendental Centre,
That
radically-theocratic
And
free-electron ideological entity,
I
would prefer to travel about by 'chopper'
Or motorbike than by car.
Imagine
a convoy of black limousines
Heading
from the leader's headquarters
To wherever he wants/has to go.
Isn't
there something bourgeois
And
starkly middle-of-the-road about
Such
a mode of transportation, better suited
To
democratic prime ministers and presidents
Than to theocratic leaders?
Why
should he be driven about like a bourgeois,
As
though partial to expensive cars,
When
he would be more in his ideological element
With a motorbike, even if in a sidecar?
Wouldn't
he be partial to zipper jackets,
Since
beyond the use of button-up coats,
And
wouldn't they prove more relevant
To motorbikes than to cars?
Yes,
I dare say they would, since connoting,
Like
bikes, with a transcendental bias,
Symptomatic of a theocratic extremism.
So
for short trips from, say,
One
part of town to another,
A
convoy of motorbikes,
Their
riders clad in black,
A
kind of elite bodyguard - booted, helmeted, armed,
The
leader somewhere in the middle of the convoy,
Well-protected at all times.
And
for long trips, a 'chopper',
Well-protected
in the air and monitored
From the ground - fast and transcendental.
